Last updated on 16 Aug 2023Great to see Roy Grace and the team back. This time for quite an unusual investigation. A farmer is woken in the night by his dogs barking, and is killed by the intruders whilst defending the puppies they are stealing. Meanwhile, young dog lover, Bluebell is promised a puppy by her parents and when viewing the puppies, she is nipped on the nose by one. Bluebell then falls ill and is hospitalised, the doctors are amazed to learn she has contracted rabies, an eradicated disease.
Whilst Grace and Branson are investigating the farmers death, his own dog, Humphrey is taken. They are led to a dubious character called Grecko who has a trait of dognapping and stealing dogs to order from his boss.
The investigation leads to a nail biting standoff between Grace, Potting and a brutish puppy farmer.
Though not the usual killer storyline, a very thought provoking and eye opening plot on topics which are not always brought to the forefront.
Nothing to fault on this book, a perfect 5 star score.
